ShawnB Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 You knew it was only a matter of time before Pettite convinced him to come back. Finally I can come out of the closet and cheer for Rocket Roger again. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=1706367 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatnipOligarchy Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 that didnt take long. i figured he'd wait at least a year before coming back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndianPimp99 Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 Interesting...now I hope the Cubs do something to keep "pace". I still don't think Astros have enough to beat the Cubs but they've got enough to make it really interesting. I hope Hendry responds in a big way, but not in a "I'm making a move to make a move way". Sign Pudge, or Maddux, or both but be smart about it. It will be fun to see him bat against some pitchers (Wood again, Randy Johnson, Prior) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenstein Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 I have to say that I'm kinda surprised. Not that he would come back, but that he came back to Houston. Isn't the stadium down there a hitter's stadium? I just thought the way he retired the past season was the classy way to step down. Good to see him back though, in the dictionary next to the word classy should be a pic of Clemens. Great for baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xeonic Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 Georgy-Porgy tried to show some restraint with his comments regarding the situation... "Roger Clemens was a great warrior for the Yankees - a teacher and a leader. He told the world he was retiring and we had no choice but to believe him."

gottadeal Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 did anyone hear if he was going to play the whole season? i know there was talk of him pitching only at home. Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Derf Veteran Posted January 13, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 13, 2004 Good to see him back though, in the dictionary next to the word classy should be a pic of Clemens. Great for baseball. Is he planning of returning his "retirement" gift from the Yankees? I'm sure somebody else in the Yankess organization could use a nice new Hummer....
